I am home!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Well I got home yesterday.

HI!
I got home yesterday about 6:30ish, the rush hour traffic was TERRIBLE!
Oh my gosh, where do I start.

My surgery was delayed almost 2 hours because another dr was having difficulty and he needed my drs assistance.

When I woke up, I woke up to Sam telling me to wake up that "they" were there. (I think)lol Remember this is all under the remnints of anesthesia and such.
Later that day I remember them telling me I was going to get out of bed that night and I was like I don't think so! OUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!! I was hurting so bad and I was so hot it didn't seem like the hospital had any ac so they went to get me a fan! I think I asked myself everyday until today probably why I elected to do this!

I feel a lot better today and I know everyday will get better. I have been sleeping on the recliner in the living room, it is the most comfortable place to be. I take only one pain pill every 4 hrs during the day and then 2 every 4 hrs at night, although I have been waking up every hour or so.

I had to eat something pureed before they would let me leave, it did taste better than it looked LOL! It was turkey or chicken or maybe even pork I am not sure it was some beige protein and some green veggie with mashed potatoes. They had Jello on the tray and soup and apple juice and milke sheesh! I ate from just the plate and that was ok, I had no nasuea and I didn't throw up so they said I was ok. I was really ready at 10a but I had to wait for Julio to get off from work at 2p :(

I have a special local pain numbing medicine called on Q my incisions are itchy so they are healing, here the link for On Q :

It is really neat, the only thing is, I have to remove it myself so I hope that is going to be ok......

Ok, I will write more later.
